Super Alloys
Super alloys place the highest demands on abrasives due to their material strength and their precious alloy components. VSM products can live up to these demands.
Stainless Steel
When machining stainless steel the high temperature associated with such a process must be reduced. For this purpose, we recommend the use of TOP SIZE products.
Unalloyed Steel
Unalloyed steels are extremely hard. Using sturdy backing materials and reliable belt joints is crucial.
Aluminum
Although a high stock removal rate is essential when machining aluminum, clogging of the abrasive must be prevented. This is done by using products with VSM STEARATE.
Non-Ferrous Metals
Non-ferrous metals possess several different attributes. The spectrum may vary from hard to soft to tough. VSM has a wide range of products that are suitable for grinding almost any non-ferrous metal.
The right abrasives for wood and lacquer
VSM ALUMINUM OXIDE and VSM SILICON CARBIDE are suitable for the rough grinding and polishing of natural woods, engineered woods and pre-painted surfaces.
Wood
Wood sanding subjects the belts to very high loads which can be absorbed by using premium quality backing materials and reliable belt joints.
Lacquer
From preparing the surface to intermediate sanding or repair grinding, VSM abrasives can cover the entire remit of paint applications.
The right abrasives for other material
Other materials such as glass, ceramics, stone and composite materials can be ground using VSM DIAMOND, VSM COMPACTGRAIN or VSM SILICON CARBIDE.
Glass / Ceramic / Stone
Grinding of these extremely hard materials requires the use of premium backing materials and sturdy belt joints.
Composites
Composites feature a variety of characteristics. VSM has a wide range of products which are suitable for grinding almost any material.
